CHAPTER 61- PATCH UP

Next day early morning they shifted to Maha's room because Tasneem could be back anytime, Maha didn't know what she did there at Mr. Khanna's place and she didn't want to think about it lest she misunderstands them.

In their room, they lay facing each other with their twins in between them.

'I can't believe I had sex on my boss's bed.' Fawaz smiled recollecting last night. Maha blushed.

'That sounds so wrong in so many ways.' Maha winked at him, and Fawaz felt his cheek burn.

'Hey! I was with my wife...' he defended himself. Maha smiled at him, he extended his hand but before he could touch her, the kid next to Fawaz shifted in his place and hugged him. Maha chuckled when Fawaz made a face retracting his hand back.

They were having breakfast when Tasneem returned, she looked at Fawaz sitting at the table

'You are still here?' she rolled. Maha opened her mouth to say something when Fawaz held her hand stopping her.

'Nani, he is our daddy toh he will be here only na' Majid said munching on his bread and egg. Fawaz looked at Tasneem, he saw her stern expressions change to soft one when Majid said this, she looked at Maha and then left.

Fawaz frowned thinking something, just then his phone rings

Miara calling

Fawaz looked at Maha nervously, her smile faded when she accidentally glanced at his phone. She looked at him and smiled slightly indicating him to talk to her. Fawaz smiled gratefully, he got up taking the call

Fawaz, I am sorry for my mother...

'Miara, don't be...your mother isn't wrong...she has lost her husband' Fawaz said

Thank you for understanding, I will make her understand.... Miara then broke down over the phone, Fawaz panics

'Miara...Miara...don't cry please...if you want I will come there' he said softly

No no...mom will fire on you again and besides I am taking mom with me to Australia, we will settle there.

Fawaz is relieved knowing this, she has made a very good decision, 'Okay, take care and call me whenever you need me' he said

He felt her nod on the other side and he smiled

I am leaving tonight, if possible can you come at the airport?

Fawaz agreed, this is the best chance to make Maha and Miara meet so they can patch up. He knew Miara will feel lighter after she apologized to Maha.

************************************

Fawaz made excuse to his parents stating that he has some urgent work at the office, he instead spends time with his family. He took them to a mall, the kids played in the play area. Maha entwined their fingers as they took a stroll in the mall window shopping but their gaze not leaving each other. They had lunch in the mall and then came back home, Fawaz promised the kids that he will take them to the park in the evening. Majid and Faheem were overexcited to have their father and Fawaz is happy having his kids and his wife, his love back in his life. He hopes nothing comes in between now.

'Airport?' Maha asked surprised when Fawaz said about his plans. The kids flopped on the sofa exhausted from their play time in the park.

Fawaz nodded, he felt nervous as he said, 'Miara is leaving for Australia with her mother.' He said.

He noticed Maha's expression change, she then said, 'What should I do?' she sounded annoyed.

'Arey, meri jaan. Just meet her. You will like it. Just patch up.'

'Why?'

'Because some great mature person said to me yesterday, that what is lost is lost and the good part is that...'

'Okay, Okay.' Maha threw her hands up in air accepting defeat. Fawaz smiled and hugged her, reluctantly she hugged him back.

******************************

Maha stood at the entrance expressing her displeasure on Miara coming late. She fanned herself feeling hot. Fawaz looked at her wondering how is she feeling hot in a cold climate wearing a blue ruffled tube top, black sleeves long shrug and denim jeans. Delhi is not as freezing as Dehradun right now but it is still cold and Fawaz has worn a jacket yet he felt cold. He shook his head, 'Maha!' he exclaimed with a smile. Some things never change.

After few minutes of waiting finally, they see Miara. She is with her mother and so even after looking at them, she walked inside with her mother. Maha frowned saying it was rude. But Fawaz knew why she walked away, she didn't want her mother to see him. He smiled, he knows Miara too well.

Fifteen minutes they had to wait longer, Maha was about to leave when Fawaz spotted Miara coming out from the airport, he is relieved. Maha made a face.

'Fawaz, thank you for coming.' Miara said happily. Her smile faded when she noticed Maha beside him. She is surprised.

'Hello, Miara.' Maha said wrapping her arms with Fawaz's. Miara flashed an awkward smile and a hello. Fawaz smiled at Miara.

'You guys talk, I will come.'

'Where are you going, honey?' Maha asked faking sweetness. Fawaz shook his head, slowly he slipped his arm from her clenches. He looked at her showing a pinkie finger, 'Nature's call, love.' He said smiling. Maha let him go.

'Just five minutes. Miara please stay here.' He said and Miara nodded.

Fawaz then hurried from there, he looked back Maha was looking at him. To his bad luck, there wasn't much crowd. But he managed to find a washroom. He entered inside and peeped from inside. Maha is still looking at his direction. He hid again leaning against the wall he cursed under his breath.

Two minutes later, he peeped again.

This time Maha and Miara are facing each other but not talking. Fawaz is irritated, he took out his mobile from inside his back pocket and texted Miara asking her to talk to Maha and bury the hatchet.

Seconds later he got a reply, 'Okay.'

Fawaz sighed. He then peeped again and smiled on seeing Miara talking something with Maha. Now, he prays Maha cooperates.

Fawaz kept glancing at his watch and the duo, they are talking and Fawaz is feeling better. He is stunned when he saw Maha hug Miara. Maha? Hugged Miara, first? Fawaz blinked and stared at the two women. He then quickly fixed his jacket and hair and walked towards them.

'So, ladies? What were you two talking?' Fawaz asked looking at Maha to Miara.

Maha smiled looking at Miara and then at Fawaz, 'Thanks, Fawaz.'

'For?' Fawaz asked genuinely confused.

Maha smiled, 'for letting me speak with Miara.'

Fawaz looked at Miara who smiled at him, 'Okay then, I have to go.' Miara flashed a smile at Maha and then at Fawaz. He is surprised how everything fell into place. Maha smiled and hugged Miara again, 'Have a safe flight.' She said

'Thanks.'

Miara then is about to hug Fawaz but they felt awkward in Maha's presence. Maha rolled her eyes, she held Fawaz's shoulder and pushed him forward. When he looked at her, she tilted her towards Miara gesturing him to hug her. Fawaz smiled and hugged Miara, she hugged him back.

'Have a safe flight,' and then he added dropping his voice to a whisper, 'mail me once you get there, okay?'

Miara nodded her head.

'Okay, Ho gaya!' Maha said annoyed, she quickly separated the two. Fawaz and Miara looked at Maha then glanced at each other and began to laugh. Maha frowned for a second before joining in with them.
